Former FBI lawyer Lisa Page plans to defy a subpoena from the U.S. Congress by refusing to appear for her deposition but she has no excuse for her failure to appear says, Goodlatte:

“It appears that Lisa Page has something to hide. She plans to blatantly defy a congressional subpoena by refusing to appear for her deposition. She has known for months that the House Judiciary Committee has sought her testimony as part of our joint investigation with the Oversight Committee into decisions made by the Justice Department in 2016, and she has no excuse for her failure to appear.”

Goodlatte further stated the importance of having Page come before the House Judiciary Committee labeling her as a key witness:

“Lisa Page is a key witness, and it is critical that she come before our committees to answer questions as part of our investigation.”

Goodlatte further warned Page that lawmakers would “use all tools” at their disposal to obtain her testimony after her lawyer has stated recently that she would not comply with a subpoena to appear before the committee.

President Trump joined the conversation Tuesday on Twitter, tweeting out about Page.

Trump tweeted Tuesday: “I am on Air Force One flying to NATO and hear reports that the FBI lovers, Peter Strzok and Lisa Page are getting cold feet on testifying about the Rigged Witch Hunt headed by 13 Angry Democrats and people that worked for Obama for 8 years. Total disgrace!”
